Leos Ultras
A full four years after Chicago organ maestro Jimmy Lacy’s legendary maiden voyage as SiP, Leos Naturals, he returns with its lush, layered, long-awaited sequel: Leos Ultras. Conceived and recorded in a corner of a large floorplan warehouse-turned-sound lab called Homan Gardens, the album radiates a rare joy and colour, projected through a technicolor slideshow of cosmic keys, clarinet, kalimba, sax, melodica, flute, tambourine, and drumbox. The songs feel warm and weathered, like familiar garme…
Deer's Breathe In Every Color
*200 hand-numbered copies limited edition* Lake Mary is the moniker of Chaz Prymek, a guitarist, composer, free improvisor and painter currently based in the US. Through spacious personal hymns exploring the wilderness of deep emotional narrative, Prymek’s long-form compositions and improvisations are boundless meditations on the landscapes, river ways, and wildlife, both external and personal. Perhaps most widely known as a founding member of the group Fuubutsushi, Prymek's work as Lake Mary le…

*300 copies limited edition* Clothilde’s new album sounds like a constant departure from almost everything. Up until now, her music pieces seemed uncontrolled, a total commitment to the machines. She was, somehow, in between us - listener, audience - and the idea of a machine producing sounds she doesn’t seem to control. Of course, none of this was entirely true, she was mostly in control, but the fantasy, the orchestration of it was beautiful. It was sci-fi-ish, Metropolis-magnificent. In “Cros…
Lemon Squeezy
Intimate songwriting fades into sound deconstruction. The most gentle and songish JDV release so far....
Riconnessione Iconoclastica Sacrale
“Does destruction of sacred images imply anything for the erosion of the role of the imperial icons? Because divinity being destroyed is not a representation of a spiritual form disappearing, but a consequence of historian interpretation, scientists are doing exactly what everyone would do when tripping in ego-fixation, creating a transformation which is itself subversive and self-deconditioning. The church of the Virgin has been rebuilt and lavishly refurbished, due to major insights regarding …
Red River
Kolkata-based musician Nilotpal Das aka Bios Contrast's new album 'Red River', arrives as a narrative sequel to his 'Dragon Rising' LP on Hong Kong DIY label Mouhoi. The concept behind the record is a speculative historical drama and myth taking place during the deadly Kalinga War in the Mauryan Empire of India. Following his intensive 24-hour harmonium drone compositions, Das's 'Red River' uses recordings of Bell 407, a civil utility helicopter as the main body of the record together with a 47-…
Moltitudine in Labirinto
Bomb! 200 copies, clear vinyl. Valuable vinyl reissue for this historic four-handed work by Gigi Masin and Giuseppe Caprioli. The concept of multitude combined with the figure/symbol of the labyrinth suggests orders of thought relating to the multiple states of being that inhabit the dark labyrinths of the soul, the hidden regions of the human psyche. All in Multitude In Labyrinth leads us to look for keys to understanding the ultimate meaning of a test as enigmatic as it is powerful. A congerie…
Soutien De Famille
*300 copies limited edition* Phenomenal ambient explorations from the talented French electronic producer.

The new compositions by French electronic producer Julien Jabre illustrate the stunning visuals of the Franco-Slovenian duo.

Agartha
‘Where is Agartha? What is the specific region in which it lies? Along what road, through what civilizations, must one walk in order to reach it?.’ - Saint-Yves d’Alveydre in 1886 Agartha, the debut full-length album by Japanese producer Wata Igarashi, is a mysterious, divine thing. Named for the mythical secret kingdom, understood as a complex maze of underground tunnels, perhaps designed by Martians who colonised the Earth tens of thousands of years ago, it’s a similarly mystical, perhaps even…
Damaged Future
**Edition of 100** Unlike the electro-acoustic suite “Combustion” which inaugurated the catalog of Anomala Soundscapes in the split album together with Daniele Pecorelli, Mark Schaub’s new work develops on various levels articulating between very dissimilar styles and sounds. The trait d’union between these short compositions is the attempt to recreate the apocalyptic scenarios of Ballard in music, an author so dear to a certain industrial culture that here once again he returns to the center of…
Ash Tapes
**Edition of 50** Transcendent sound that floats in the ether, dragging with it memories, affections and all the resulting emotional load. Rarefied music, characterized by an impression of impalpable lightness, which in the placid undulations of "Mare Tranquillitatis" and the crystalline transparencies of "Rain People" effectively amalgamates loops, drones and guitar reverberations. On the second of the two CDs, the sound material opens up to new colors and in "Everyone" welcomes echoes of moder…
08
Tip, few copies available! **Edition of 100** Dissimilar works documenting different experiences. A collection of disparate live and studio recordings, sourced from field recordings and weird self-made instruments. A curious mix of acoustic and electronic sounds like many little voices buzzing and screaming in a desolate mechanic land establishing an otherwordly surreal landscape. At times bizarre, at times claustrophobic.
Vaco
Tip! **100 numbered copies in black 'disco bag' cover with sticker, 180g audiophile vinyl** Active on the scene for more than two decades, Maath is the moniker of Marco Ramassotto, who briefly came to note during the early 2000s as a member of the ritualistic, musical excursions of Biasthon, as well as working under the pseudonym of Mark Schaub. Despite Maath’s many years of activity, Ramassotto has only produced a tiny number of releases under that guise, most notably “No Survivors for the New …
Lollo Rosso
The remix album, with marvelously creative EDM remakes from some of the best powerbook players of the day: Mouse On Mars, Jim O’Rourke, Kid Loco, Schneider TM, Stock, Hausen & Walkman, Cornelius and The High Llamas themselves. In addition to showcasing this emerging new generation of digital masters, the treatments here also highlight an oft-undersung aspect of The High Llamas’ sound – the influence of Krautrock.

The live set consists of four long pieces with interchangeable sounds that has been performed live since 2019 but always changed and evolved for each year. Many of the sounds may come from various tracks from studio albums, or are newly tailored for the live set, and some sounds are created by live improvisation. All sounds are manipulated and mixed live to…
The Slaying Of The Infants
The Slaying Of The Infants was the very first output from Stratvm Terror, originally released as a very limted edition demo cassette in 1994 (10-15 copies). Pulsing and beating, cold and doom power industrial electronics. Many of the tracks ended up in the first official release Germinal Chamber, released on cassette by OEC later the same year, but slightly different recordings/versions. Sleeve design mimic the design of the original demo cassette.
Reel to Reel
*300 copies limited edition* The sounds in this double CD (already available as CD + Music Cassette in the "Atrax Morgue's - Mörder Machine" Box), are the very last recordings by Marco Corbelli and was found on a couple of reels in his studio after his death. For these recordings Marco used an old Korg MS20 synthesizer which produced a continuous background noise together with the audio signal, such noise is clearly audible in the recordings. During the editing phase this hiss was kept as an int…
Information Overload Unit
OEC is proudly going for the re-release of this Industrial timless masterpiece on its 45th anniversary! And after 45 the relevance of that album is incredible, it feels like it was recoded yestarday. The lack of equipment & tools has sharpened creativity. Information Overload Unit by "System Planning Korporation / << SPK >>" is simply a M.U.S.T.
A reference and absolute highlight in Industrial culture and muzak!
The First Fifty Years
A chronologically edited, audio document of the definitive recorded output of 'Les Sculptures Sonores', the instruments solely created by the French brothers Bernard and François Baschet, who from 1954 pioneered for over 45 years a completely new way of combining sculpture and sound. Some small, some over 20 feet high and incorporating glass rods, metal cones, wires, plastic inflatable resonators, and many other devices, these fascinating structures are not only cosmetically entrancing, but prod…
